Won't Say Goodbye



If I lost you today,
My life wouldn't be the same,
To have them take you away,
For what I worked so hard for to stay,
Is not something I can let be done,
Or accept my decision,
To just let you walk away,
We've built up so many years,
To just have tears,
Control what everyone else feels is right,
For you & I,
Someone else's selfish decisions,
Will not have me make up my mind,
To say goodbye,
To the love I hold inside!
